Roles of long non-coding RNAs in cervical cancer

Q: How does OCRA curate its research paper database?

OCRA indexes peer-reviewed papers from PubMed and CrossRef, enriched with MeSH terms, author profiles, and citation metrics. Papers are categorized by cancer type, research method, and clinical relevance.

Q: Can I search papers by MeSH term or author?

Yes. Use the search bar to filter papers by MeSH term, author name, journal, keyword, or cancer type. Each paper includes linked MeSH terms and author profiles for further exploration.

Q: How current is the paper database?

The database is updated regularly through automated ingestion from PubMed and CrossRef. Most papers appear within days of their PubMed indexing date.

Cervical cancer (CC) is regarded as the second serious threat to women's health worldwide; it's associated with certain viruses that are transmitted through sexual intercourse. Therefore, the pathogenesis of CC remains to be studied. The identified long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) as a key genomic product were found to be commonly dysregulated in CC and to exert significant effects in the initiation, migration, invasion and therapeutic response of CC. Therefore lncRNAs may be used as tumor suppressor genes or oncogenes to interact with DNA, RNA or proteins for the regulation of gene expression and cell signaling pathways. The relationship between single lncRNA and CC has been discovered. However, full-scale reviews on the lncRNAs function in CC are deficiency. In this review, we describe the recent reports on the dysregulated patterns regulation of lncRNAs in CC. We also conclude the recent advances on biologic functions and molecular regulation mechanism and potential clinical application of lncRNAs in CC.
